Heyoooo amazing Delos Tribe! We're finally getting properly settled in after all the chaos of returning to Australia, moving in to our new place, getting back in the building groove and of course keeping the normal episodes coming! But we are beyond stoked to share this first look at Delos 2.0 with you! After 10 weeks away in Tahoe visiting Brady & Blue, some time with family in Sweden, and of course all the boat show antics in Annapolis, we finally got back to the workshop and laid our eyes on Delos 2.0 again! And our reactions in the video pretty much say it all, we were BEYOND blown away at the progress that was made. Dan and the guys didn't miss a beat while we were gone and the amount of hard work they put in in such a short amount of time is truly incredible. When we left there were no decks and no roof, the top part of the boat was still just a skeleton, and now as you'll see they put on all the decks, the entire roof, the whole aft cockpit, the rain catchment system, support posts for the roof, chainplates all welded in, and sooooo much more.  We are super stoked to be back at it, and we've got some pretty cool stuff coming up to share with you. We hope everyone is having a fantastic week, and we'll see ya on Friday with our episode of our trip Tahoe and Sweden!

Sending love and gratitude from Oz!

Brian, Kazza, & Sierra

Delos 2.0 is coming along!! "She's a beaut!!" So happy for all of you, amazing progress!! ⛵🤩

William Houck

That roof/solar/water/davits is *chef's kiss*. Just think, that's really only the space behind the mast. You still have all the space in the hulls and trampolines!! Wow, very nicely done.

Lee Pottle

Could say Dalos 2 is Very “ ergonomic “ ! Totally Awesome Brian, Kazza and Sierra. Very cool.🤧😂

Steve K

Awesome. Awesome. What's the headroom under the ceilings?

Lee Pottle

kazza’s excitement is contagious. Not for Sierra she already has a party going on in her beautiful head.😂 Can’t wait to see it.

Lee Pottle

It’s like a combination of Water World and Dune with all the water conservation.😂

FreeWilly

Very nice, can't wait to see it finished!

Kay Tennant

Omg ! It looks Huge !! I can’t wait to see you guys out sailing in it !

Michael Trautman

Hey FIRST TO SAY WOW!!! Everything you wanted no wasted space… SO MUCH ROOM … and the WINDOW EXPOSURE,, SUPER

Cy Pilkington

Amazing, love the innovations you dreamed up to really make it your own and even better than designed. Hat's off to you Brian.

Mike Medina

That roof is huge! Looks like you merged a houseboat with a catamaran.

Daniel in aus

that is awesome guys I couldn't get up there on the meetup being in the wheelchair so very happy you posted an update thank you

Even Haug

Looking sooo good.

Alan Gore

Wow, that blew me away. Absolutely incredible. Also loved Sierra’s gentle reminder to you that she isn’t a baby lol

Peter Kane

Incredible progress while you were gone. Maybe you should leave more often? Ha!

William Flower

Sierra's sign-off "Owwwt!" with a wave of her hand could be the new "Woo-hoo!". As she said.. she's "not the baby." With the roof in place, Delos 2.0 is looking massive. You could catch "Jaws"... you *are* the bigger boat! ⛵👀😎

Israel Dayan

wow so much in 3 months . Deeeelightful 🙌🏼💦⛵️2.0

Jeff Ridenhour

Wow! She's coming together so quickly!

Chris Brown

I'm sooo glad you chose to have help and build in Australia, the progress is amazing and I can almost imagine this on the water now.

Andrea and Gisela

Wow! That roof will hold the entire Delos Tribe 😎

Coree

Maybe you can use a foot control for the shower.

Scott C. Wise

So much done since you left! WoW Is it still too early for inside cabinets to be put in? I would guess so. Thanks for the preview!

Paul Hazelgrove

It's sooooo good hope you managed some timelaps of this topside progression..

Clive Lake

Fabulous looking boat guys. You’re talking batteries and inverters. How much electrics will you have on the boat? Diesel motors or electric? A generator too? I was watching another channel and he has discovered that that the batteries and stuff on his all electric boat caused it to sit too far back in the water and has had to make changes in the placement of the real heavy equipment. 👌🏼

Bonne Mike

Outstanding design! The Salon is big enough for square dancing .... at least a ho-Down (Sierra's bike rides). You may have so much space in lockers ....... that you will keep everything! Sometimes a mighty Captain's dreams come true. Keep'em flyin

Tony Gariepy

Awesome progress!! Did they do any time lapse while you were gone?

Donald & Ruvey Lovegrove

Will there be easy access from the forward cockpit to the roof to access the boom?

JK

The lines are just beautiful along with the metalwork. So clean!

Clark Robins

I'm a wood guy, through and through. I gotta say, I can't remember ever feeling such a sense of emotion from metal work as what you are showing. Nice, very nice.

Katie Litchfield

What an incredible gift of space to be together. But also plenty of space for personal contemplation. It’s almost like you all knew exactly what you wanted and had taken years of careful consideration! 😉 Well done! I cannot wait to see her all fitted out and floating.

Ana Pacha

wow what an amazing update. my gosh so much progress, cant finally see what the boat is gonna look like. i mean being a visual person my self, seeing the boat like this, finally the design, pland and blue print of delos2.0 made sense to me in my head.... i honestly cant wait to see you guys set sail.

Tim Heslip

Great progress! Very cool to see it coming along.

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks so much Katie, yep we mayyy have put a bit of thought into it over the years 😂 We can't wait to have her out on the water, although we are sooo enjoying the build process too!

Sailing SV Delos

It's a pretty indescribable feeling to see Delos 2.0 coming together like this 🥳 Will be cool once we start outfitting the interior and get into a bit of woodworking too

Sailing SV Delos

They've really done such an incredible job haven't they?!? We might be a bit biased but we think she's such a gorgeous, one of a kind boat!

Sailing SV Delos

Haha not sure about the square dancing but the smoke machine will definitely be making an appearance for some dance parties 😂

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks Scott! And yep we're still not to that phase yet, but we're definitely making some great progress in planning out all the interior fittings

Sailing SV Delos

Hahahaha I think if we get rid of woohoo from the end of the videos there would be Delos Tribe mutiny 😂😂😂 And yeppppp she really is HUGE!

Sailing SV Delos

100 percent NOT a baby 😂 and thanks so much Alan, glad you're loving the build as much as we are, soooo crazy to see it all unfolding

Sailing SV Delos

Shame you couldn't make it Daniel, but glad you enjoyed the walkthrough! We've been super busy and have lots more to show you guys over the weekend!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks so much Cy, we've been thinking about it for so many years, we are so happy so far with how it's all coming to life!

Dan Moss

Wow. Just wow. I can’t wait to move in… I mean watch you move in. She is coming along so nicely.

Dwight Smith

Amazing amount of space! You are going to feel claustrophobic when you get back on Delos!

Robby Lafont

You can play football on top of that roof….

Janet & John Nobis

Wow! This is so cool! I didn’t think I would enjoy this build as much as I enjoyed you sailing but it’s been fun and I’m super impressed how fast it’s going!

Sailing SV Delos

Hey Donald, yes it should be fairly easy. We are building a step on the port side of the cockpit, and on the starboard side there is a seat that can be used as a step. From the deck it's pretty easy to get up top.

Sailing SV Delos

Hey Clive, we'll target around 50KWH of batteries. It's a substantial amount of weight, over 400KG. We'll have about 10KW of inverter capacity. So yes the weight balance needs to be calculated carefully otherwise you risk a squatting boat :). We'll have one diesel engine for range, and two 25KW electric motors. It's quite a new system but we look forward to seeing how she goes!

SV Trippin'

Have you considered 'chef' stools at the stern? think about when you have a large group on board in an anchorage. You're grilling and drinking a beer. You need a place to sit and set your drink down without returning to the main part of the aft deck. Cheers! amazing
